The best night markets in Phuket have a special festival feel to them, often being accompanied by street performances and music. Local markets are generally a good place to find some great bargains on souvenirs and keepsakes. However, why waste a perfectly good beach day? Wandering around a busy marketplace under the scorching sun will have you drenched in sweat within minutes. 

That’s where night markets have the advantage. Food vendors do a roaring trade at Phuket night markets, making them excellent spots to enjoy your evening meal, experience genuine Thai street food, and shop in cool comfort, all at the same time. These are some of the best to choose from around the island.

    Phuket Walking Street, occupying a picturesque part of Phuket Old Town, is both a cultural attraction and night market. The old Sino-Portuguese houses, which line the 350-metre-long street, are lit up in vibrant colours. The space between these buildings is packed with stalls selling traditional local foods, Thai handicrafts, modern fashion and souvenirs. You'll often find buskers and performers offering entertaining distractions from your retail therapy.
